A skull and bones from the left leg indicate the remains are those of islander Konstantinos Fragoulis. A family member has attended the port but confirmation of identity will require forensic examination.
Still on Corfu, the body of 82 y-o Damianos Kostas Mouzakitis from Avliotes, missing since 23/11/23,was discovered this morning. First reports suggest he was attempting to ford a winter stream with wild vegetation when he fell in. 20
